The Laco-25 is a sturdy two-seat biplane that is easy to fly yet very agile. To aid the builder, there are no castings, forgings, or other difficult-to-build-or-obtain parts. The fuselage is a Warren truss type of chromemoly tubing with wooden formers and stringers. The wings are conventional two-spar construction with wooden ribs and chrome-moly fittings for strength. This homebuilt derives its designation from the use of a 125- hp Continental in the prototype, which is interchangeable with the 145-hp engine. The weight distribution of the Laco-125 is such that larger four-cylinder power plants can be substituted.
